Hi there! I am a freelance writer who lives and breaths content on a daily basis. I consider myself to be a living paradox. An old soul trapped in a modern world. A self-proclaimed hopeless romantic and a professional over-thinker. I can't start anything unless I have my coffee. Writing has been and always will be my way of calming the storms in my heart and mind.

Most of the time, doing make-up can be a little tricky and difficult as it may seem. Women usually find a hard time applying them or even spend a lot way more than usual to get the results they always wanted. Here are some famous makeup hacks that will help every woman in daily living:

1. Dried Mascara

It may seem that the mascara is already done for its purpose because it dried up already but think again before buying a new one. Adding saline solution to the mascara makes it usable again. Revive the mascara by adding a few drops of the saline solution and shake it well.

The solution allows the mascara to be moisturized causing the dried parts to re-wet. Saves time and money from buying a new one.

2. Falsies Glue

Application of glue to fake eyelashes is one of the trickiest things in doing make-up. These adhesives are so sticky and easy-stick to make the falsies stay intact on its place. But these as well makes it messy when glue are not properly and carefully applied.

Instead of manually using hands in applying the glue, get a Bobby Hair Pin, and use the tip to evenly spread the glue on the baseline of the falsies. Wait for a few seconds to dry a little bit and then apply.

3. Bigger and Livelier Eyes

There are a lot of ways to make the eyes bigger and livelier. Usually with the proper and right blending of eyeshadows, one could achieve this. But the easiest way to achieve this eye is by applying a white eyeliner.

4. Concealing Dark Circles and Puffy Eyes

The most usual application of concealer every women does is by creating dots and evenly spreading it on the spots. Actually, the best way to apply this is by creating a triangle under the eyes. The base of the triangle must be placed under the waterline and narrowing the triangle going down the cheeks. Spread it evenly following the triangle made.

This will conceal the dark circles and puffiness of the eyes. Also, it will make the face look lifted.

5. Red Spots

Zits and acnes in reddish appearance are difficult to conceal with an ordinary concealer. Most of the time, the redness of the spots are not well hidden using the shades of concealers. The best trick to use is a green eyeliner or green eyeshadow. The green shade wins over the redness of the spots.

After applying a thin layer of green eyeliner or eyeshadow on the areas concern, apply a thin layer of concealer to hide fully the spot.
